NUS Harmonica presents Soiree 2022: Momentous, a musical exploration of an individual’s journey through time. Measured conventionally, time is an unstoppable force of physics that advances in a singular direction. However, due to its universality, scientific time also exists as the backdrop to our most personal and intimate moments. The constancy of time is disrupted by these moments of intense emotions, which can be perceived as points of transformation within an individual’s lifetime. Furthermore, when we reflect upon our lives, we tend to remember only those significant events have occurred, not the specific amount of time that has passed.
NUS Harmonica desires to capture a series of musical snapshots of moments throughout one’s life. Through these pieces, we hope to remind the audience of key moments in their lives, and that we are shaped not only by the years of life we have lived, but also the moments within it.
